description

Capable of automatically negotiating data transfers at 10, 100 or 1000 Megabits per second in full- or half-duplex mode, the PMC/Gigabit Ethernet/82543 NIC offers embedded systems developers the ideal solution for decreasing development costs and time-to-market as well as provides a seamless upgrade from current Fast Ethernet-based products.

With a standard RJ-45 connector interfacing the PMC/Gigabit Ethernet/82543 NIC to a driver-enabled host system, no adapter cables are required to establish full duplex mode. And by implementing Intel's cutting-edge 82543 LAN controller Gigabit Ethernet technology in a standard PMC form-factor, this NIC offers a cost-effective solution for expanding I/O on single board computers with PMC slots such as Force's CPCI-680 and CPCI-735/736 CompactPCI SBCs as well as the company's VME SBCs.

• Full-speed, 64-bit DMA bus transfers (with programmable burst size)
• Large on-die FIFOs (Tx and Rx)
• Address filtering modes
• 512KByte User Flash memory
• 1KByte SROM (for storing Ethernet addresses and system parameters)
• Five LEDs to indicate full/half duplex mode, transmit/receive activity, speed/link status (at 10, 100 or 1000 Megabits/second)
• Support for VxWorks® on PowerPC™ and Intel processors, which also support Linux™, Solaris® and Windows® NT operating systems
